Make Dolphin the first choice, by moving it above Konqueror in the precedence order. This will ensure that Dolphin gets the first priority for opening directories.

To make dolphin the default file manager for the virtual directories kde creates e.g. system:/ then again in the File Associations section of the control centre expand the inode section of Known Types. Under the system_directory mime type, add dolphin to the list of applications(If Dolphin entry is already present, remove it), however instead of choosing dolphin from the kmenu, type the following in to the text box at the top dolphin %u The virtual directories created by kde will then be opened by dolphin as default

Why would anyone replace Konqueror with Dolphin as the default file manager? That’s like replacing a Porche with a yugo. Dolphin lacks many of the features Konqueror has. If it doesn’t have a tabbed UI, it isn’t a worthwhile file manager. Dolphin is just a dumbed-down version of Nautilus anyway.

When I did the upgrade from 7.0x -> 7.1, I had Dolphin shoved down my throat, when I was perfectly fine with Konqueror. Thanks for the tip on how to change it _back_. Why the upgrade didn’t respect my previous choice baffles me…

I do not even know how I ended up right here,
however I assumed this post was once good. I don’t recognise who you’re however definitely
you’re going to a famous blogger in the event you are not already.
